+FTH=n

none

Transmit HDLC Data: The +FTH= command causes the modem to trans-
mit data framed in HDLC protocol using the modulation mode selected.
may have the values shown in

Table 5-2 on page 74

.

After receiving the +FTH command, the modem sends a “CONNECT” result code
to the DTE. The modem then transmits signal converter training (if required) fol-
lowed by flags until the first byte of data is sent by the DTE. The modem termi-
nates the +FTH command upon detecting characters in the data
stream.

When the buffer is empty, the modem computes and appends the FCS (Frame
Check Sequence) and a closing flag to the frame. The modem ensures that the
minimum number of flags required by T.30 are sent before the data from the DTE
begins to be transmitted.

The modem checks the final frame bit in the control field of each frame; this is the
fifth-received bit of the second byte of each frame. If the final frame bit is a “1”, the
modem ceases transmission after the frame is sent, returns to command state,
and sends the “OK” result code to the DTE. If the final frame bit is a “0”, the mo-
dem sends another “CONNECT” result code to the DTE after the current frame is
sent. The modem continues to transmit flags until the DTE takes one of the follow-
ing actions:

The DTE sends additional data. The modem then transmits another frame.

The DTE sends only (a null frame). The modem then turns off the
transmit carrier and send the “OK” result code to the DTE.

If the DTE transmits no additional data within 5 seconds from when the modem
reported the “CONNECT” result code, the modem turns off the transmit carrier
mode, returns to command mode, and sends the “ERROR” result code to the DTE.

In HDLC transmit mode, the modem performs HDLC transparency functions, FCS
generation, and buffers the transmit data. The modem uses the configured meth-
od of flow control to pause the DTE as necessary.

Note:

If the modem is on-hook, it always returns an “ERROR” message to the
DTE after receiving the +FTH= command.
